This study aims to develop and evaluate a printable reading comprehension test specifically designed for pesantren students in low-technology learning environments. Utilizing the ADDIE instructional design model—comprising Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation—the research addresses the digital divide and material constraints often found in religious educational settings. The methodology employed a Research and Development (R&D) design involving ten students from MA Al Mahrusiyah at Daru Zainab, selected through purposive sampling. Data collection involved a printable closed-test format, specifically a fill-in-the-blank assessment, supplemented by semi-structured interviews to capture qualitative insights. Quantitative results indicated a significant improvement in reading proficiency, with mean scores rising from 5.40 in the pretest to 9.10 in the post-test. A paired-sample t-test confirmed this improvement was statistically significant (p < 0.05). Qualitative findings further revealed that the structured, context-sensitive nature of the test helped students focus on deeper meaning rather than guessing. While the study is limited by its small sample size and short-term scope, it demonstrates that systematic instructional design can bridge the gap between pedagogical theory and real-world educational constraints. Ultimately, this research provides a feasible and effective alternative for fostering reading comprehension in under-resourced environments where digital tools are impractical.

This study explores the English proficiency levels of vocational university students majoring in Mechanical Engineering, assessed through a TOEIC simulation test. Seventy-four students participated in the study, which used a modified TOEIC test with 18 representative questions due to time constraints and students' unfamiliarity with the full test format. The results indicated a mean score of 53.38 out of 100, with a significant range from 15 to 90, highlighting substantial variability in proficiency levels. The majority of male students scored higher than female students, suggesting potential gender-related differences in language acquisition within this cohort. A positive correlation was found between students' TOEIC scores and their academic performance in Mechanical Engineering courses, underscoring the importance of English proficiency for academic success. The discussion contextualizes these findings within second language acquisition theories and compares them with previous studies, emphasizing the necessity for targeted English language support tailored to vocational students' needs. Practical recommendations include integrating specialized English training into the vocational curriculum, offering supplemental language support, and implementing regular language proficiency assessments. The study's implications for policy and practice highlight the need for enhanced language instruction to improve vocational students' academic and professional outcomes.

Examining recorded lectures’ effectiveness to teach grammar in the context of flipped classroom model has not been widely research. Furthermore, this type of teaching has not been frequently used in the research area which applies English for Specific Purpose (ESP) materials that require special treatment in teaching grammar. This study, therefore, aims to uncover the unknown research findings by implementing quasi experimental research by involving two classes in Mechanical Engineering department. Both classes were given pre-test before treatment to ensure the similarity of initial grammar skills and post-test after treatment to know the impact of recorded lectures in flipped classroom model for students in experimental group. Data gained through independent t-test from SPSS indicated that there was a significant impact of the treatment on students’ mastery in grammar proven by the significant value of 0.05 (above 0.05) As this type of teaching has been proven to be effective for teaching grammar especially in the context of ESP, lecturers who teach in the same setting are suggested implement recoded lecturers.

Accurate pronunciation is fundamental to effective communication. Meanwhile, many EFL learners struggle due to limited exposure and first language interference. This study investigates the effectiveness of two AI-based applications ElsaSpeak and ElevenLabs in improving English pronunciation accuracy among Indonesian vocational students. Employing a comparative descriptive method, 20 first-semester students were divided into two groups based on equal pre-test scores. Each group received three pronunciation practice sessions using one of the tools. Post-test results showed significant improvement in both groups, with ElsaSpeak yielding slightly higher gains due to its real-time, phoneme-level feedback. Learner responses confirmed positive experiences with both tools, although ElsaSpeak was preferred for its interactive features. These findings suggest that AI-assisted pronunciation tools can serve as effective supplements to traditional instruction by offering individualized, flexible learning. The study highlights the value of integrating such technologies into EFL pedagogy to enhance pronunciation development and promote learner autonomy.

This research examines the most common morphological and lexical errors in English Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for welding machines authored by Indonesian mechanical engineering students. Using a descriptive qualitative method, ten student-generated SOPs on Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) were analyzed. The study found that most errors arose from negative transfer from Indonesian, a language with minimal obligatory inflectional and derivational morphology. The top three morphological mistakes were the omission of the adverbial suffix -ly (8 occurrences), the omission of the plural -s (6 occurrences), and the omission of nominal suffixes (6 occurrences). Lexical errors were also prevalent, particularly inaccurate collocations (e.g., do welding instead of perform welding) and incorrect phrasal verbs, reflecting a tendency to translate literally rather than use established English technical expressions. These errors undermine the clarity, precision, and safety essential for effective SOPs. The results suggest the need for focused instructional strategies that contrast English morphological and idiomatic conventions with Indonesian to enhance students’ accuracy in technical English writing.
